NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is set to attend the 17th G-20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia from tomorrow, will attend three sessions on food and energy security, digital transformation, and health.
In a special briefing on Sunday, Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra said about Prime Minister's visit to Indonesia, "As per the current programme, the Bali Summit comprises three working sessions at the leaders level where PM Modi will be participating. These include sessions on food and energy security, digital transmission and health." G20 deliberations have acquired a greater say in the current global economic and political context. G20 is the premier forum for international economic cooperation and it plays a crucial role in shaping and strengthening the global architecture and governance in all major international economic and developmental issues.
The G20 members represent around 85 per cent of the global GDP, over 75 per cent of global trade and about 2/3 of the world's population. This G20 Summit is special because India will hold the presidency of G20 for one year starting from December 1 for a period of one year and the presidency handover will take place during the Summit in Bali.
"PM Modi will be attending the 17th G-20 Summit in Bali, Indonesia from tomorrow. India will hold the presidency of G20 for one year starting from December 1," said Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra.
During the Summit PM Modi and other G20 leaders will deliberate extensively upon key issues of contemporary relevance, including the state of global economy, energy, environment, agriculture, health and digital transmission, etc. The G20 logo launched by PM Modi draws inspiration from the vibrant colours of India's national flag - saffron, white and green, and blue. It juxtaposes planet Earth with the lotus, India's national flower that reflects growth amid challenges, said an official statement. ANI
